OJ r 0tmeamamsaam Hxc SaHB staivm. ASTORIA-OREROS: FRIDAY JUNE 10. 3SS1 D.C.IttELVXO. Editor. A Yankee Trick. Another and verv remarkable exhibition of Yankee enterprise has come to light through the pub lication of the icvision of the Xew Testament. With infinite care the commission of revision kept the result of their labors seci et. They knew that they hud American pub lishers to deal with and American daring and energy lo encounter. With a great show of desire for absolute fairness all round they arranged it so that the proof-sheets of their labors should be given out in England simultaneously to all publishers, both British and Ameri can, ignoring the fact that by this arrangement, if it had been adopt ed exactly according to their old fogy notions, the Englibh printers would have had eight or nine days start on their American brethren. A publishing house in New York knew a tiick or two, and pro ceeded to put them in practice. Wceics before hand the selected a perfect outfit of type and cases, likewise a perfect force of skilled compositors. They could tell from the character of the work the uality and quantity of type that was needed, and the force that was required to set up the matter in a week. All this knowledge was brought to bear, and both men and material were shipped to England by various steamers, so that suspicion should not be excited. Then necessary space on a fast running steamer was engaged without explanation as to the use it should be put to, and the typos were shipped as ordinary passengers. As soon as the coast of England was lost sight of, and no chance of tele graphic communication to either end of the journey was possible, the hired space was occupied, the cases were set up, and the familiar call of "copy" ng from the was heard issu foi emaus lips. When the steamer arrived in New York from Liveipool she was met by a horde of representatives oi other publishing houses eager for their "copy.1' The fornix belong ing to one Live Yankee firm had been stereotyped on board and the type returned to it boxes. The plates went up to the publish ing house, and within twenty-four hours the perfected books were being issued to the newsdealeis by the hundred thousand at a time. Jt no doubt oost a heap of money and much brains to conduct this skillful operation; but it will pay, and pay largely. "And why,' say the adroit speculators, "should not the word of God, according to the latest revision, be profitable in a temporal as well as a pi ritual sense?" It is very likely that copies of the American edition will be sold in England before the sleepy British printci.i get their editions bound. And we are ofier ing the New Testament from Tiik AfiTOitiAN agency for a nominal sum running from ten cents to 1 50 per copy to any who wish it. See advertisement in another column. On the Sth an attempt was made to effect the stock and grain markets by means of a dispatch from a western point announcing the sudden death of Jay Gould. The dispatch w;is stopped at. the associated press office and the dastardly scheme defeated. Sim onton reports that the investigation he has conducted shows that the dispatch originated with a syndi cate organized for the purpose of disseminating false financial and commercial news. He said that the syndicate has its agents in leading cities in the east and west and London. News aercnts and the business public need be on their guard. Adolph Albcrs, captain of the steamer Silesian, Captain Gustavo Meyer, of the steamer Ohio, and Carl Wiegard, captain of the steamer Salicr, were arrested in ! New York for carrying an exces sive number of passengers." The first named was held in 610,000, the second $25,000 and the third in 5,000, to await action of the grand jury. In the Ohio republican state convention Foster was renominat ed by acclamation. Senator Sher man made a stirring speech as per manent president. Among tUe Nalnrnllsts. Capt. Charles E. Bendire, of the First cavalry, a scientist of wide repute, is on a visit to Vancouver. In about three weeks he will take his company from the Walla-walla barracks on a general tour o dis covery, measuring streams east of the Cascade mountains, resurrect ing fossils from the vast beds in the John Day country, in the in terest of the Smithsonian institute. Capt. Bendire has been twice offered the command of the government arctic expedition, but having refused will probably be selected to take charge of the ex pedition up the great Yukon river in Alaska. Tiie captain is now giving the trout and salmon of our country his especial attention, and in his opinion, the famous red fish of the Wallowa lakes is identical with our blue-back silver-sided salmon. Last Monday the Captain visited Dr. Kaffcty in East Port land and w:is surprised at the excellence of his collection. Dr. R. has two Albino grouse, killed in Washington county, and which arc very rare. His snakes, birds, fish, Indian relics, fossils, minerals and othcr'curiositics, were all ex amined with great interest, many of which were declared to be quite valuable. Reference to Captain Bendire as a naturalist would not be complete, says the Standard, without mentioning the fact that his collection of birds eggs is the largest and finest in the country, and is valued at 810,000 a prize he intends some day to present to Harvard college. A dynamite mine has been dis covered close to the Gatschina railway station, Russia, connected with a battery in the railway tele graph oflico. All telegraph offi cers have been arrested. Senator Conkling is realizing from the course of his old timo friend, Charley Smith, of the Philadelphia Press, that there is no malice like the malice of a ren egade. It is intended if possible to run trains on the railway through the St. Gothard tunnel by electricity which i to be produced by ma chines now employed in pumping air into workings and for other purpose. The number of outrages in Ire land i- increasing. The figures stand as follews: January, -139; February, 170; March, 1-10; April, 20G; May, o2T; and for the first week in .lune, ending to-night, 99. They include attacks on property, attempted murder, cattle hough ing, incendiarism and all other ofl'euses traceable to ajrrarianism. The Leather Manufacturers bank has unearthed a systematic plan of forgery for the purpoo of defrauding banks iu distant parts of the United States. During the past year over a dozen forged dralts have been presented at the bank for collection. One was presented on the Sth through the Bank of New York, and another through the Bank of Commerce. They arc making the dirt and moss agates fly, on the Oregon ex tension of the Union Pacific railroad from Granger. A few days since a train of 25 cars left Ogden carrying 175 horses, 100 men and 40 wagons, to work on the Oregon extension. The line has now a very lively appearance, with the hundreds of men and teams which are now working on the grade. Rails and material are being piled up at Granger, ready for use as soon as the grade ib ready for track laying. Track laying will soon begin. NEW TO-DAY. uonsigneestoyce.
